My bad i got the wrong end of the stickNo, that's not what I'm saying. I can't see how you came to that conclusion either.
I interpreted it exactly that way. He basically said that we need the charges to be cleared so we can get the credit we really deserve.The bin dippers are jumping on Ian Wrights comments with glee. But if you actually listen to what he said it sounded like he was pretty sympathetic to city and was suggesting these allegations will and should go away so pep and city get the recognition they deserve
His son still works for city and will still have close links to the inner sanctum of the club.
I've not head his comments but have read the quotes and that was my takeaway too - that he wants it resolving and resolving in our favourThe bin dippers are jumping on Ian Wrights comments with glee.

Thats how I heard it too. he was being complimentary to Pep & City. Paul Dickov tweeted legend to Ian Wright. Surely he must hear some stuff from SWP.The bin dippers are jumping on Ian Wrights comments with glee.

I recall having a similar conversation at Villa Park almost 10 years ago.I think we've just been described as the horse that bolted before the stable door was locked in a reference to the PAS rules by SKY's new slimy Peter Drury in conversation with ratboy,
Also I understand United were fined after admitting they failed FFP.TBF, he's not wrong is he? They tried to stop us but it was too late, too little. They're now trying to make sure they don't make the same mistake with Newcastle.
I think our execs are genuine in their condemnation of ffp. They realise that if the PL is competitive, the TV income, especially from overseas, is maximised.I recall having a similar conversation at Villa Park almost 10 years ago.
Publicly City will condemn everything to do with FFP and how it restricts teams like Newcastle, but privately,(and especially as we've been run so professionally both on and off the pitch) it probably suits us to have less teams on a level playing field.
From a city ffp perspective an 80k with closing roof would be better as the revenue for concerts , boxing etc would 100 per cent go to the club. The co op arena will be discounted from our income ffp as none of the cartel clubs have a share in an arena but many of them hold events in their stadia.View attachment 109966
In 1999, the 75000 all seater Milennium Stadium with its retractable roof cost £121m to build.
CoMS with 5000 extra seats would've cost £29m more.
We essentially got stiffed to protect the status of London based Wembley, for no other reason than the government didn't want an English stadium built using government funds to compete with the £800m Wembley, hence the North of England got stiffed... AGAIN! ¯\_(⊙_ʖ⊙)_/¯
I would like to say believe me but it may sound condescending so I will rephrase it to, no ex player will get any info from our directors, like us they will just hear gossip. The board at City tell you only what they want you to know and that is they have plans in place for everything. The boardroom doors are shut tighter than a fish's backside and thats watertight;-)The bin dippers are jumping on Ian Wrights comments with glee.

Correct An argument could be made for 5,7,8 108 or 131 depending on how they get grouped up. 115 has never made any sense as if you don't group alleged offence x per season all the time what's the fucking point of doing it some of the time. 115 came up when some shit journo took his socks off to use as a jizz sock when the premier league released the original grossly incorrect statement. Unfortunately the poor fucker couldn't use his fingers & toes correctly due to them being stuck together, and the rest are too lazy & ignorant to count for themselves so 115 it is.Am I right in saying it’s not even 115 charges the amount of times 115 gets mentioned by pundits on Tv is crazy
Thanks him for doing his best to price out all our original fans? Or for spending a tiny fraction of his wealth to buy great players?TODAY.....
We are one more day closer to being cleared of all charges.
The internet will melt.
#stinnocentsday.
Manchester thanks you Sheikh Mansour
DELICIOUS !!
Sounds a tad bitter that.Thanks him for doing his best to price out all our original fans? Or for spending a tiny fraction of his wealth to buy great players?
What would be bitter about it? I’ve been to every big game i’ve wanted to since the takeover. Is it bitter to point out the obvious that our owners are pricing out the working classes or that thousands of diehard blues have stopped going over the last 10 years?Sounds a tad bitter that.
You are right. These days virtually nothing leaks out of City's boardroom or the inner sanctum. In the past the whole club leaked like a sieve. It's what happens when an organisation is run professionally. In stark contrast look at the current state of our Trafford neighbours in terms of confidentiality.I would like to say believe me but it may sound condescending so I will rephrase it to, no ex player will get any info from our directors, like us they will just hear gossip.
